Jeep Cherokee XJ Engine Knock Ticking Noise at First Start | Easy Fix with Engine Restore

- Опубликовано: 14 окт 2024
- My 2001 Jeep Cherokee started ticking or knocking when I started it cold, but it would eventually go away. I researched possible causes and solutions and this worked for me. Worth a try if your car is doing the same thing. Trying Engine Restore for the first time. It worked for me. Good luck whatever you end up using and leave a comment if you found something better or this worked for you.

Engine restore is amazing product. It won’t fix a broken engine but it will add life to old engine.
The way the tick just vanished at 2:32 is so satisfying. Almost like there was a little piece of crud in the lifter that that finally got knocked loose. I might try this. Got an intermittent lifter tick on my truck.
Had the same problem. Grand Cherokee has 196K on it with lifter noise. Put sea foam in and ran that for 300 miles then changed oil with Rotella T5, its synthetic blend 10 w30 and used restore. It's just the next day and my lifter noise is greatly improved! Thanks!
I’ve used this stuff on all my vehicles after I crossed the 170000 mark. Love it… does what is says… you will notice a difference if you’ve never used it before.. sub in for one quart on your oil changes… may not fix the problem but makes the ride to the end a lot smoother….
Engine restore is good stuff, but another fix I have used many times for valve train ticks is Marvel's Mystery Oil. Marvel's has many detergents that can help liquefy sludge, so that it can be drained next oil change. Whatever works for you, do that. I have heard trans fluid can be used similarly to Marvel's as it has many detergent additives.
Thanks for showing the difference. My 4cyl 2.4L manual 2008 Jeep Patriot North. didn't sound as noisy as that but had some ticking. I poured in Engine Restore for 4cyl today. It should go away. When I changed the plugs my idling time dropped from ~1100rpm down to ~600-700rpm..
Glad it worked, tried on my 4.0 and didn’t do a thing.
Lmao try marvel mystery oil for ticking to loosen everything that’s stuck.
Yup its works for most oil changes and synthetic . Been using this for about 2 yrs . It does the job cleans a lot too the deposit. Just dont use the whole thing use half test the engine then use the rest after u took it for a ride and make sure ur not full on oil passing or over the Safe line . 👍he's right tho.
engine restore is brilliant put it in my car not long ago and can already feel better acceleration and smoother engine performance I would recommend it to anyone
Always buy a good oil filter cause there are a lot of bad ones that do not hold oil pressure correctly on cold starts 😎✌️
apparently added a quart of automatic transmission fluid and driving for awhile will also work. THANKS for the video!
Add a can of gunk engine flush run 7-10min @ idle drain change oil filter add all but 1qt of favorite oil THEN add can of Restore & top off with marvel absolutely works & works well (( i came up with this procedure in 1992 selling cars & has never failed to improve all i have done this to ))
You need more Zddp in your oil. That's your cam lobe wearing out! Valve's and lifters sticking. Flush your engine. Start using valvoline racing oil, Rotella T4, or other oil with zddp higher than 1200 ppm. Good luck. I have 2 Jeep Cherokee's with over 300 thousand miles. A 94' and a 95'. Both run like tops, without any ticks! I change my oil every 3000 miles. I use Rotella T4 10w-30, as per my owner's manual. They don't recommend Rotella! However, the proof is in my pudding! When I change my valve cover gaskets, the inside is spotless, with no sludge, and no varnish. That build up is what's causing your problems, probably! 👍🇺🇸😉
What did you use for the flush? I'll take your advise on the Zddp, thank's.
I use Rotella 10/30 in my 4.0 also. Put valve cover gasket on when I pulled it no sludge whatsoever. Also I change oil at 3000 miles religiously. I think that’s the biggest reason my engine stays so clean.
had a lifter ticking loudly on my jeep 1996 4.0. changed oil, made no difference. oil pressure is fine. put a can of this in today and 10 minutes later.....ticking is GONE.
SeaFoam in the oil, gas, and intake works great too.
Hey everyone i just wanted to share this with you all !! I talked to the manufactures of this product directly and they told me do NOT use this if your vehicle has VVT Valve Timing system in it. It will clog everything up and it wont be good! So make sure you check that first before you use this product! If it doesnt have a VVT system your good.
Other systems like Hydraulic valve lifters and stainless steal shims are ok. According to Scotty Kilmer. So yeah, hope that helps! Your manufacturer of your vehicle can help you if you give them your VIN number. They can tell you for sure if it has VVT . CHeers!
Thank you for making this video, It was very useful and informative
Bearing lifter or piston skirt
Lifters
How about using half bottle of engine Restorer and half bottle of Marvel Oil? Would that be work?
mine starts without noise but starts ticking after warm up not near as loud as yours, i would put in new valve train and lifters, been using restore for years starting in the 80,s it works, in my jeep it keeps the ticking way down for about 1000/1200 miles then it starts ticking again
Why didn’t I think of this? My XJ is @ 251k and runs great but she knocks for a bit on a cold start. I think I’m gonna give this a try.
Cool. Hope it helps! After a few more weeks, mine pretty much stopped knocking altogether.
So now, did you try?
did it work?
Thank you soooooo much man!!!!!😎🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
May I ask you, is this a quick permanent fix or temporary? Thanx
Im thinking any sludge in my engine is keeping the oil from leaking out of the rear main seal
I have a 2015 Overland that just started ticking at 75,000 miles. It's a V-6 so of course the warranty is out. Does this add life to the engine or just temporarily solve the problem?
Did you manage to fix it? Did it go away completely?
Put this in my 2006 Chrysler 300 with a bad lifter that is ticking and it seemed to stop the ticking for about the first time I started the car but drove it again and the sound came right back any suggestions?
Put some motor flush in that engine clean it out properly get some synthetic motor oil 5W-40 and then reinstall the restore and I guarantee you that sound will go away
I have the same problem in my WJ..I am going to try Restorer too,just has to find out how to order it from US..I live in Europe.Thanks for the video 👍
I ordered restore from ebay..Shipping cost 18$...Can't wait to try it..
@@kajbyman3006 did it work?
@@deadjoey77 He's a Dane, will never answer.
I hear this noise faintly under my hood of my 16 jeep cherokee but not on a cold start, only after driving 30 min. What could this be? I just bought this Jeep a month and half ago, took it back to dealership, but they said they couldn't hear it. Thank you for any help you can give me
I'm going through the same situation, mines is a 15. Hope everything works out for you.
@@sonofgod6398 could be bad gas ie junk with ethanol or the ticking could be as bad as lifters or rockers. Change the gas for 1 or 2 tanks and eliminate that first. Use the mid grade from shell or esso, they shouldn't have ethanol in that.
This does work i used it on my honda with 160,000 on it and i used this and it worked it felt like it had a little more power and the noise was gone.
So you pour it where the motor oils go in?
@@veezyloco3759 yep
Still gone? My Kia does this every now and then if I don't drive for a few days
Mine too noise☹️☹️☹️#SOUTH AFRICA
Bet it's sold or been rebuilt by now. That's the well known lifter tick
What kind of oil are you using with this?I have a 06 grand Jeep Cherokee 3.7
Any update did it work ? Did it completely go away?
How is it doing now? Is it something you do after each oil change? Thanks for the video
Do after every oil change for 5 if engine is bad then every 10,000 miles
@@adamsmy8121 thank you so much
@@alexparis2885 anytime if you have any other questions feel free to ask now
@@adamsmy8121 so I bought a 2003 jeep had 4.0 motor guy replace it with a straight 6 it has a slight tick and at high rpms. Would product would be the best just the same I used or is their others? Sorry for the multiple questions I’m not Mechanic lol but I want this to really work thanks for your time sir
I would like to know, is Engine Restorer based on MOS-2(molibden sulphide)?
MOS,, IS THE BEST..GERMANY,!!🎉🎉
Es una gran cherokee año 2004 sigo escuchando el ruido igual
That work for kia optima 2012?
I'm tryna find out too 😩
Drain a at of oil, and Run a qt of transmission fluid in it.
Just did this to my girlfriends Cherokee with 360k, let’s see how long it lasts
Been a month and still mint !
@@SpecialFXKing any update by chance my friend
Safe to say as long as I keep using that and Rotella T6 it works well. However it is starting get louder at about 2,000 in between oil changes as the viscosity thins with time.
Still mint in my books !
problem is still there
Nope that’s piston slap. It goes away when the engine is warm because the aluminum expands within the cylinder wall and closes that clearance gap
All this additive stuff is what causes problems in the first place ! It don’t fix anything it just covers a problem while it gets worse !! Engine additives!! Block boassages over time then the engine struggles to move oil through b then it wears on the pump ! When u have a problem just fix it ! The rockers in the 2.5 and 4.0 wear as they are fixed and seated with no lash adjustment!! Just replace em with new rockers and rocker shims n ur good to go
Agree just fix the problem!
So do you put it in where the engine oil goes ?
Yes .
Good job. Tyvm
Supposedly it's also a hyper-lubricant, my guess its that it freed up some lifters.
Mine does this now but it’s the spark plugs one is probably shot
A lifter tick on startup that goes away after a few seconds or minutes is most likely caused by a lifter with internal wear that allows the trapped oil to run out while the engine is stopped. The engine restorer will help seal the internal sliding bodies and could last for several hundred miles but will eventually have to be retreated. Not bad, just not a permeate fix.
There's no way, if there's a problem..get in there and fix it!
Any body try this on a 2006 jeep laredo???
????
Dallas Texas? Stevie Ray Vaughan!
Yes sir! SRV is the king in Texas!
You think its better then mystery oil
Yo le eche uno Ami camioneta pero no se le quitó el ruido no sé si le faltará más o alguien me puede decir que más le puedo hacer
This sh!t clogged my oil filter and lowered my oil pressure. Drained that sh!t out instantly.
THANKS
Ok for the new agers here, as a formerly licensed, 20 year automotive diagnoses and technician in the field let's clear this air and separate the clouds ... the problem is not "fixed", it's HIDDEN ... just hushing up the inevitable. The problem still lies that you still have a problem that the restore product has quieted down. It's not "gone" at all, it's waiting for the perfect time to strike. It's not "lasting", it's still delaying what you cannot avoid and it's also making the problem worse except this time you can't hear it. Do it right the first time, FIX the problem itself, notice the knock starts and goes to hiding again... Problem is still there period and this is NOT a solution. "Ticking or knocking" is unacknowledged of the actual problem so let's just hide the whole problem at hand? ... not the way to take care of a motor. This problem can be fixed in your driveway for the same price as you would pay for that engine restore if it's up top and much less ($8.00 to _FIX_ the culprit minus new oil and filter). DIAGNOSE the issue and fix it, not guess and throw liquid bandages over the problem.
You never said what the problem and actual solution is so your comment wasn't really any more helpful for anybody reading it.
What exactly is the $8 solution then
90% of the time there is a top end knock on these jeeps its rocker arms or lifters.
Guess I am using a bottle of that shit since you flapped at the lips and made no offer to identify the "actual issue".
@@brandonhvacants2217 . His solution is to bring your car to him and he'll put a $5K engine in it for you .
It does not fix tickin noise
If you have aluminum engine components, beware. You'll corrode it from the inside out
Not a lifter rod knock
What's make it this to make noise
Running engine low on oil or not changing oil on time
55 seconds vs 9 seconds after engine restore
know ceratec by liqui moly
Yeah I don't know... I don't trust it.
Camshaft
stuff is BS comp test before and after did it twice nada. BS
No
thats the wrong size can for a 4 cylinder
Well it's a 4.0 L I6
LOL
🤦
That's a 6 cylinder and he should have used 2 full cans and about 6 ounces of marvel mystery oil too !
i have same issues with my dodge durago 2014 hemy 5.7
I'm having the same issue. Just uploaded a video to my channel and have no clue if this would work for me. Anyone mind checking out my and letting me know?
My 4.0L currently sounds like it's not a Gasoline engine. She sounds like a big diesel.
you have piston slap
Did you mess with your exhaust system at all or it probably has thr good old crack on the header
How in the hell did someone fuk up one of the best motors ever built?
